Right from wrong? Entry questions

Hello, I am new to the bigger pockets forums after being turned onto it from the podcasts.

I am currently about to start schooling to obtain my RE license and would like to get familiar with all the avenues of real estate and investing. I understand that it takes a lot to get your feet wet and I feel as if I am retaining so much information and learning so much on a daily basis between the multiple podcasts, chapters in books and other sources that some important stuff may be left behind and useless info brought with. 

My Biggest questions I guess would be how do you decipher all the key points? And I have started on episode 1 and have listened to over 30 of the podcasts now in order and I'm wondering if thats the best way to go about it? Or could some be  outdated or an "older" way of doing stuff? 

As cliché as it is and sounds I would like to do a few Wholesales while Im getting my license so any sort of information or lesions learned along the way would be super helpful. 

I plan on doing a house hack as a first time buyer as well. Is it better to play it safe and just get a duplex and have one side occupied to learn the landlord process or spend the money and go for the four-plex? 

Thanks in advance for any help! I appreciate you taking the time out of your day.
